<argument index="3" name="working_mem" type="Array">
</argument>
<description>
Execute the custom node's logic, returning the index of the output sequence port to use or a [String] when there is an error.
The [code]inputs[/code] array contains the values of the input ports.
[code]outputs[/code] is an array whose indices should be set to the respective outputs.
The [code]start_mode[/code] is usually [constant START_MODE_BEGIN_SEQUENCE], unless you have used the [code]STEP_*[/code] constants.
[code]working_mem[/code] is an array which can be used to persist information between runs of the custom node.
When returning, you can mask the returned value with one of the [code]STEP_*[/code] constants.

</methods>
<constants>
<constant name="START_MODE_BEGIN_SEQUENCE" value="0" enum="StartMode">
The start mode used the first time when [method _step] is called.
</constant>
<constant name="START_MODE_CONTINUE_SEQUENCE" value="1" enum="StartMode">
The start mode used when [method _step] is called after coming back from a [constant STEP_PUSH_STACK_BIT].
</constant>
<constant name="START_MODE_RESUME_YIELD" value="2" enum="StartMode">
The start mode used when [method _step] is called after resuming from [constant STEP_YIELD_BIT].
</constant>
<constant name="STEP_PUSH_STACK_BIT" value="16777216">
Hint used by [method _step] to tell that control should return to it when there is no other node left to execute.
This is used by [VisualScriptCondition] to redirect the sequence to the "Done" port after the [code]true[/code]/[code]false[/code] branch has finished execution.
</constant>
<constant name="STEP_GO_BACK_BIT" value="33554432">
Hint used by [method _step] to tell that control should return back, either hitting a previous [constant STEP_PUSH_STACK_BIT] or exiting the function.
</constant>
<constant name="STEP_NO_ADVANCE_BIT" value="67108864">
</constant>
<constant name="STEP_EXIT_FUNCTION_BIT" value="134217728">
Hint used by [method _step] to tell that control should stop and exit the function.
</constant>
<constant name="STEP_YIELD_BIT" value="268435456">
Hint used by [method _step] to tell that the function should be yielded.
Using this requires you to have at least one working memory slot, which is used for the [VisualScriptFunctionState].
